He comes to her in her dreams, a force of nature like none other. The gravitational pull is unbearable, drawing her towards him like a moth to a flame. His dark eyes are fathomless, haunting her day and night. Who is this mysterious stranger, with the hungry eyes that call to her? Has he come to make her one with his soul, his Eternalmate, or as a predator she his prey? Is he here to finish the kill?

The problem is she doesn’t know if this is a good thing or if she should be running as fast as her feet will go. She fears the worst. If only she could remember…

Ruthie Manier is an author of thrilling paranormal romance books. Her first in the new series, ‘The Hemocil Society,’ by the name of ‘Lover’s Curse’ was released May of 2014. The second of this series, ‘Lover’s Salvation’ will be released in the late spring of 2015. Ruthie puts a new spin on vampire romance that will keep you on the edge of your seat turning the pages, eyes burning through the words afraid to miss what happens next. Her books are filled with sexy, strong, magical characters, packed with action, steamy romance, and best of all, true love. Ruthie like many others has had her share of bumps and curves along the road of life, and has found the healing and the strength she needed through her lifetime love of writing and her other greatest passion, running. Once at forty-nine she was invited to run a half marathon but was told by a peer she was too old. Heavy hearted she almost withdrew, but then after stewing on it for a few days she lifted her chin, squared her shoulders and said, “Like hell I can’t run a marathon!” Ruthie ran her first half marathon in 2009, since then she has completed three more half marathons and the Seattle Rock n’ Roll Marathon! Her motto is to never give up! She is a Washingtonian through and through, born and bred second oldest of ten siblings. Ruthie has been married to the love of her life Jon for thirty years. They have four adult children, two rowdy sons and two strongly independent daughters. Thus far they have been blessed with four beautiful grandchildren, again two boys and two girls. For the last eighteen years Ruthie has worked in the medical field, mostly in the emergency room where it has been her delight to work with many amazing people including staff and patients. However, Ruthie’s greatest pleasure is spending time with her loved one’s camping, vacationing or just plain visiting with a hot cup of tea or a nice glass of wine. At home you’ll always be able to find her cozied up in her favorite lazy boy chair or on her patio enjoying the sparse NW Washington sunshine, creating a new novel or reading someone else’s delicious romance.

About the Author

“Ever since I was five-years-old, I have been in love with words and their structure. Nothing is more freeing than fleshing out the universes in my mind, the characters in my heart. Bringing an entire world to life and watching it engulf the psyche of my readers is the best adrenaline rush there could ever be. Sharing ideas, exploring possibilities, hearing theories and discussing the basic compounds of etymology and inspiration–that’s what makes me a writer. What makes me an author is the reader, it’s you.”
